Why does conduction occur more easily in solids and liquids than in gases?

Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact. It is more likely to occur in soilds and liquids because the particles are closer and move slower.

Gases can be squashed compressedbut solids cannot?
Flow. Gases and liquids can both modify their shapes.
Do Solids usually conduct heat better then liquids and gases?
Solids do conduct heat better than gases, although not necessarily better than liquids. Some solids are actually composite materials, because they can have a porous structure which contains gas within the solid, and this results in solids that do not conduct heat very well. But it is the gas component which has this insulating property.
Has no definite shape solid liquid or gas?
Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape.

What are the variations of matter?
solids, liquids, and gases
What do solids liquids and gases depend on?
solids, liquids, and gasses, all depend on how many atoms are in that element.
Dose conduction work in solids liquids or gases?
conduction take place in solids and gases
What is the difference between conduction and convection a 5th grade answer please?
Conduction occurs in solids and liquids but not gases. Convection occurs in gases and liquids.
Conduction occurs more easily between solids and liquids. This is because the particles in gases are?
further apart and move more slowly.
Is convection a chemical reaction?
no it is a type of conduction that can happen in liquids and gases, conduction happens in solids, and radiation happens in gases
Why is conduction useful?
Conduction is useful because it allows you to heat solids. FACT: Solids heat faster than liquids and gases.
Why unlike gases liquids and solids can not be compressed easily?
Intermolecular forces in gases are lower.
What is condution?
Conduction is the transfer of heat particles from a high concentration to a low concentration in solids, liquids and gases.
Why convection currents can be set up in liquids and gases but not in solids?
Matter doesn't move easily in solids.
Do gases are more easily squashed than solids and liquids?
how am i suposed to know
Heat can travel by?
Heat can travel in 3 ways by conduction in solids, convection of fluids (liquids or gases), and radiation.
How do you go through solids liquids and gases?
conduction goes through all three objects convection goes through liquids and gases and.. radiation goes through Solid,liquid,gases&space
What type of substances does conduction best work on?
Substances that are in form of solids offer the best conductivity compared to liquids and gases. The conduction may be sound, electricity or magnetism.
